you mean "systems swapped", primary and standby?  primary and standby were on the same machine in
these tests (even the same raid).

I can eventually move the standby (the 'slow' side, as it stands) to another, quite similar
machine.  Not in the coming days though...

I did install systemtap last week. dtrace is not installed (I think. I've never used either.)
